Chapter 1921 [Greed] and [Luck]

"What did you say?"

"Did I said wrong thing?"

The Dwarf King suddenly changed the direction he was facing and entered the trajectory of the sun. The moment Marika took a step forward, he stretched out and turned into a black and gold stream of light, appearing behind Marika.

Even though Marika has demonstrated super resistance to the sun and is even immune to solar fire, the tricks derived from solar fire are another matter.

The Dwarf King did not punch Marika directly. In terms of punches and strength, he was no match for Marika at all. If he punched casually, Marika might seize the opportunity and break his arm.

Therefore, he focused all his attack methods on developing the capabilities of the True Sun Chariot itself.

He raised his arm and spread out his five fingers. The spreading hot wind from the sun instantly gathered at his fingertips and then turned into thin lines as thick as his fingers and sprayed out.

It looked like spider silk, but it was spider silk compressed by the sun's fire. It easily tore through the deep rocky ground like a pair of scissors that cut through the world, and swept towards Marika.

Marika suddenly retreated to create some distance, then jumped up on her toes and flipped through the gap between the five terrifying white lights.

However, her overly tall figure did not allow her to make such flexible and light movements. Or perhaps because she realized this, she deliberately stepped back to increase the distance and tried to make the movement successful, but ended up delaying her jump by a little.

The white light brushed against her shoulder, and one of the [Friendly Scarecrows] in the warehouse was instantly burned, and most of the silver dragon scale breastplate melted instantly.

Strangely, the melted breastplate was not destroyed. Instead, it squirmed as if it had life, and Marika's body surface appeared like dragon scales.

"Ancient dragon scales? No wonder, without the skills of the dwarves, only ancient dragons can create such high-quality armor." There was a hint of surprise in the Dwarf King's voice, but that was all.

"You seem surprised when I call you a dwarf among dwarves, but I'm not talking about your appearance or your bloodline, but your thoughts."

"I know how the culture on earth describes dwarves. Foolish, arrogant, and most importantly, greedy, and insatiable."

"I didn't expect you to have this kind of self-awareness. It seems that your way of thinking is normal when facing races other than dwarves." Marika touched her shoulder and tore off the carbonized flesh with an unchanged expression. The wound was bloody and began to regenerate at a high speed.

"It's a shame. I'm honest and incorruptible, my accounts are clean, and I only receive a salary. My only luxury is to look at the desserts on the street during training."

"Do you think greed is so superficial? You are truly a dwarf among dwarves, greedy and unaware of it."

The Dwarf King chuckled and opened his arms. The black Sun Chariot Armor transformed into a huge shadow that enveloped Marika.

"I'm talking about your position!"

"You are a half-dwarf. The Dwarven Kingdom is your homeland. You are a citizen of the Giant Kingdom, with half Giaines blood. And your heart is with that dying god. You should make a choice, but you do nothing and remain silent."

"Are you troubled by your own identity? No! You clearly just want all identities."

"A sense of responsibility? A sense of mission? Those are just embellishments, a manifestation of self-satisfaction. What's important is what it means to you. To others, it may be a burden, but to you, that burden, that sense of responsibility is a satisfaction. You enjoy doing those things."

“Making a choice means losing something. Perhaps in the eyes of others you are very responsible and morally upright, but I, a dwarf, can see the flames of greed in your eyes. What I crave is gold, the supreme status of the dwarf kingdom above all other kingdoms, while what you want is status and sacrifice.” “To obtain these things, you can play dumb and remain silent like a victim in a political struggle.”

"Really? Well, you're right."

Marika just thought that the dwarf king had farted, and it was a painless one at that. That kind of abstract philosophy was really beyond her ability to understand.

As the saying goes, "Judgment is based on deeds, not intentions." Even if she really had an insatiable mindset, and not only wanted to take on the positions of leader and lord of the Royal Knights in the Giant Kingdom Alliance, but also wanted to continue to be the acting king of Asgard, it was only so that she could continue to be responsible for her work.

It is unreasonable to be condemned for wanting to work more and take on more responsibilities.

"Really? It seems that my statement was not direct enough. Playing dumb when our greed is exposed is also a characteristic of us dwarves." The Dwarf King sneered.

"Then why are you rejecting the blood of the Giaiens now?"

Marika was stunned, as if she didn't understand what the Dwarf King said, but her pupils began to vibrate uncontrollably.

"Even if you were the perfect half-blood we dwarves hoped to be able to wield the True Sun Chariot Armor, you shouldn't have such a terrifying ability to withstand heat when the Giaiens are more obvious."

"This can only mean one thing: deep down, you're actually resisting the bloodline of the Giaiens and longing for the bloodline of the dwarves. This thought is affecting the stability of your bloodline."

"Do you think this kind of talk will work on me?" Marika's expression turned cold, she clenched her fists and planned her next attack.

The Dwarf King has been avoiding movement, which means that once the power of the True Sun Chariot Armor is used excessively, the speed of petrification will increase. Next, she will force the Dwarf King to use the power of the True Sun Chariot Armor more.

"Denial? Then let's prove it."

"what you up to!"

The dwarf king turned his back to Marika and raised his hand. This time he did not launch an attack. It was the reverse trajectory of the sun, the reversal of time.

"Back to the day you made your choice."

The Dwarf King snapped his fingers forward, as if stuck in the world itself, and the whole world stopped. Then he rotated his wrist counterclockwise, and the whole world started moving again, but everything was flowing in the opposite direction.

Time began to flow backwards, but this time it was not the environment that began to flow backwards.

"How could this happen!?" Marika looked at her palm in astonishment. The wound began to heal as before, and then the calluses on it slowly faded away, becoming soft and tender.

She started to look younger.

"Why can we turn back time for living things? Because we can do this from the very beginning, but it consumes a lot of energy, and the reversed time needs to be deducted from my lifespan." The Dwarf King turned his head to look at the younger Marika and sneered.

"But fortunately, both you and that dying god are growing very rapidly."
